How to take care of your skin after age 50?
Cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising... You like to give your skin attention, every day. But it's true that as you approach 50, a few extra habits can really make a difference. In this article, we reveal the right rituals and treatments to adopt, to keep your skin looking healthy and radiant as menopause approaches.
Dehydration is also accentuated by a loss of hyaluronic acid (the famous molecule present in the dermis which acts like a sponge, retaining water), as well as a reduction in sebum production. This weakens the cutaneous barrier, leaving the skin less able to retain moisture, drier, more fragile and more prone to irritation. Other common problems: blood vessels can be damaged. It's often at this time that redness, inflammation or hypersensitivity appear, even couperose or rosacea. If this applies to you, our anti-redness skincare and makeup tips or our anti-redness guide can help.
The right gestures and routines to adopt as menopause approaches
Hydrate your skin from double cleansing
A dull complexion, drier, rougher skin and increased sensitivities... From the age of 50 onwards, hormonal imbalances, sebum secretion and the natural decline in hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin, favour dehydration. It is therefore essential to nourish and moisturise the skin with gentle formulas.
The solution? Restore skin's comfort and suppleness as soon as it has been cleansed twice, with a creamy duo: Oh My Cream Skincare Makeup Removing Oil and Cleansing Emulsion.
Reduce wrinkles and puffiness around the eyes
For dry or dehydrated skin on the face, remember to give extra attention to the eye and lip contours, fragile areas where the skin is particularly thin. Patyka Supreme Eye Lift Balm is perfect for this. With its melting texture, this eye balm instantly brings comfort to the eye contour area, while preventing and reducing puffiness, signs of ageing and signs of fatigue, and lifting and smoothing the eyes.
Prevent volume and density loss
To prevent the loss of volume and density that occurs from the age of 50, we rely on a serum capable of restoring the skin's structure and quality. Patyka Intense Revolumizing Bi-Serum is formulated with plant collagen-like and plant retinol-like. It helps improve skin firmness and elasticity.
For some skin types, menopause is synonymous with a spike in imperfections and pimples. As soon as a pimple appears, we counter-attack with Dermalogica Age Bright Clearing Serum, a purifying treatment that reduces small scars. And if pimples are a frequent occurrence, don't hesitate to take a look at our various anti-imperfection routines!
Take your anti-ageing routine a step further
Add an intelligent body cream that moisturises and prevents loss of firmness, like BioEffect EGF Body Serum. This powerful body serum, enriched with hyaluronic acid and EGF, deeply moisturises and restores elasticity and firmness, while visibly diminishing stretch marks and fine lines.
